I could go on and on, listing problems, but I'll just tell you two.
One: On an XP system there was a dialup issue. It returned the "wrong username/password" error. I tried the connection on a Vista system. You know what vista tells oyu when theres an error? "Dialup connection not working". It tells you NOTHING more. Just that it's not working, but not why it's not working. And the whole error reporting system is like that. They tell you that it's broken, but keep the important information hidden.
Then another bug that I hate is the one where upon shut-down a sector that identifys the NTFS partition, Vista will sometimes break that sector. That means that all the data on the drive is lost. You can't recover. It's just gone.
This is still present in Vista, past SP1, and theres no fix.
thats why i said i was expecting a reply for you
ill try to remember this though (want to suck up more info about this as i can) but it seems really more advanced problems then simple

all the people i know wich have vista installed, say its great, and ive only got one reply that said vista was bad, and he knows enough on pcs
and even more replies that theyll never revert back to xp, one did but he keeps a dual boot, win vista for the usual stuff, and xp only for the games

ill try to get my hardware teacher to reply on this

though alot of people look at what posted

my cousin said that windows vista sucks, and so i asked him why
the only reply by him was that vista couldnt run shit
i said thats history now but he keeps refusing for that one reason

If anyone would like me to build a rig, I'd prefer it to be in a thread in the tech section rather than PM. Thank you.
